Performance in Chapter 37 Practical Lesson

Lunch break time has arrived.

The students returned to their seats and began a snoring contest.

As long as you fall asleep before everyone else, you won't be disturbed by their snoring!

Naruto, having deeply grasped this principle, went to the sealed space early on to find his teacher and the great fox to race horses.

Hinata tilted her head and secretly watched Naruto's sleeping face for a while before falling asleep herself.

However, Sasuke always felt that many eyes were watching him from places unknown to others.

With the Uchiha clan's exceptional senses, he noticed a blond-haired man and a pink-haired man secretly watching him.

Are you trying to catch a glimpse of my good looks?

How boring.

Sasuke thought this, then turned his head toward Naruto, who was lying face down sleeping.

Well, even though he has blond hair, he's still quite pleasing to the eye.

Whew whimper whimper whimper... (It's nap time!!!)

"Students, wake up! Time to get up!"

Hinata blinked her eyelashes, then opened her eyes.

It's time to stop sleeping.

However, Naruto has not yet woken up and is still riding a wooden horse in the sealed space.

"Naruto-kun, wake up."

Hinata gently nudged Naruto's back, trying to wake her friend.

Unfortunately, it had no effect.

Then Sasuke, who had witnessed Naruto's poor sleep quality, took matters into his own hands and jerked Naruto awake.

Oh dear, is it already time?

Naruto rubbed his sleepy eyes, patted Sasuke who had just been tugging at him, and greeted Hinata.

"Hinata-chan, good afternoon."

"Yes, good afternoon."

Hinata's answer was as concise as ever, but the smile on her face was very happy.

"Hey little brother, good afternoon to you too."

After receiving Hinata's reply, Naruto started to take care of his tsundere little brother.

Yes, she clearly cares a lot, but she just won't say anything and sulks to herself.

After Naruto finished greeting him, Sasuke's lips curled up slightly, but he immediately suppressed it.

"Oh, good afternoon."

His aloof answer perfectly matched his persona, and then Naruto dragged him out to the bathroom.

In the toilet stall.

Come, let me see!

"No, don't come any closer!"

"Resist, huh? The more you resist, the more I'll..."

"Hmm, it's just so-so."

Naruto turned his head away in disappointment, the image of the acorn kappa still lingering in his mind.

However, he never saw Uncle Kappa again after that humiliation at the bathhouse.

Sasuke's face turned bright red with anger. Shame! This is shame!

"Hurry up, we're about to have our outdoor class."

Naruto urged.

"You're so nagging, I understand."

The two children returned to the classroom and, led by Iruka, went to the training ground.

"Ugh, it's so hot."

The sun at 1:30 pm was very bright, and the scorching sunlight shone on the ground, making the students sweat profusely.

Teacher Iruka went to get the practice equipment, while the students were left to their own devices in the training field.

Pshaw, I don't care.

This is Sasuke's idea: as a ninja, one should learn to endure all kinds of extreme environments in order to accomplish missions such as assassination.

With the handsome and aloof Sasuke as their role model, many girls who were attracted to Sasuke's looks and boys who were afraid of teachers chose to stand with Sasuke in the sunlit spot.

Naruto silently led Hinata to a shady spot under a tree.

It's so sunny over there, it's one thing for you to run around and play, but why are you just standing there?

(Are you standing at attention?)

Sasuke and the others were left standing there dumbfounded.

Teacher Iruka returned from the equipment room with more than a dozen wooden kunai and shuriken.

These kunai and shuriken are made of wood on the outside but iron on the inside, which helps students avoid hurting themselves while also getting familiar with the use of these ninja tools.

Can you guess whose idea this was?

Judging from the wood covering, it's easy to see that this is a product of Wood Release.

This is the armor that Sarutobi requisitioned (forcibly seized) from Danzo, which is now Tenzo's masterpiece.

Tenzo: Hehe, a kunai costs 10 ryo, and a shuriken costs 5 ryo. This is the only one of its kind in Konoha that makes these ninja tools, which are more suitable for the physique of Konoha babies.

(✪ω✪)

However, with Tenzo's intelligence alone, he could not possibly have come up with such a brilliant idea.

Therefore, in order to find the true founder of the wooden kunai, we have to look for the figure of the previous user of Wood Release.

By now, you've probably guessed it.

That's right, this idea was developed by Tobirama Senju, the younger brother of Hashirama Senju, the creator of Wood Release and the God of Shinobi.

...

When Iruka returned, he saw a group of children sweating profusely under the sun, with the second young master of the Uchiha clan standing tall and proud among them.

? ? ?

I think I forgot to let them move around freely. But aren't Naruto and Hinata hiding in the shade?

Well, it's hard to guess what kids are thinking. Let's take them to a shady spot first, otherwise they'll all faint from the heat and it'll be a problem.

"Classmates, let's go sit under the tree for a while, it's too hot right now."

Naruto, Hinata, Shikamaru, Choji, Kiba, and the others, standing under the tree, looked at their classmates, who were drenched in sweat from the sun, and all sighed that they had made the right choice in following Naruto.

Shikamaru: I'm just lazy and don't want to get sunburned.

Kiba: Since Naruto is here, it doesn't matter if I come too.

Choji: They all went, would it be so strange if I didn't go? Hmm, I'll finish my potato chips over there while I'm at it.

Sasuke walked up to Naruto, a sense of resentment and displeasure surrounding him.

A true failure to show off – Sasuke.

"Students, come and get your ninja tools. One kunai and two shuriken per person.

Fifteen people at a time."

Iruka called his classmates over to collect their special ninja tools designed for ninja trainees.

The Hashirama inside the sealed space saw the wooden kunai and its eyes lit up.

"Ah, I really miss those days."

Hashirama stepped on Kurama's tail with one foot, then ignored Kurama's commotion and began to think.

Back when Tobirama opened the school, due to the special nature of the ninja profession, children in peacetime were still relatively unfamiliar with ninja tools.

Children can play with wooden ninja tools normally, but when they go to the ninja academy and are given real ninja tools, the ordinary children are completely clueless.

It is common for me to cut myself while using a kunai.

There was even a child whose temperament was particularly like a snake who cut his tongue while licking a kunai.

Fortunately, the school disinfects the kunai regularly, otherwise the child would probably have contracted tetanus.

However, Tobirama said that the child seemed to have signed a summoning contract with Ryuchi Cave, but he didn't know what happened after that.

On the other hand, this kunai is unlike the old ones. Even if the old ones were products of his own Wood Release, they couldn't possibly have remained the same for decades.

Therefore, there is only one true identity, and he still has descendants in Konoha!

"Hmm, let me guess, is it a descendant of Tsunade or a descendant of Nawaki ?"

Hashirama stomped his foot and began to daydream.

"Hey, hot mom Hashirama ,I don't want to shatter your illusions, but your grandson, Nawaki, is long dead."

"He died during the Second Shinobi World War, killed by...explosive tags."

Nine-Tails paused for a moment, but still revealed the cruel truth.

However, when Mito found out about this, she cried very sadly, and was forced to attend the funeral herself.

Hashirama paused, took a deep breath, and then became dejected.

"Explosive tag?"

After a period of self-consolation, Hashirama emerged from his grief. After all, he had already died once, so he was not so afraid of death.

Instead, there is more regret.

Nawaki died too young. If he had been given a few more years, how could a single explosive tag have taken his life?

"That must be Tsunade's child. Sigh, it's been three years and I still haven't seen him."

"I can't wait!"

Danzo: Uh, teacher, what I mean is, is it possible that he is your son?

An awkward yet polite smile.
